MINEHEAD Under 18s rounded off their season when they played host to their French twin club Plouzane.

Plouzane have enjoyed a 30-year relationship with the Barbarians and on this occasion brought their established colts team over, with 22 players and five coaches.

Arriving on the Saturday morning of their weekend visit, they were treated to an a customary English breakfast, followed by a training session and some bubble football.

In the evening, a formal meal was held by Minehead to honour and recognise the two clubs’ continuing relationship.

Sunday brought the highlight of the weekend, with a full fixture between the two teams.

In a very physical game, Minehead defended bravely and made the most of the few opportunities they were given as the well-drilled Plouzane side gained the bragging rights with a 30-5 win.
